We are learning to use everyday language to measure the capacity of an object I can estimate or guess how much an object holds I can measure using units of measurement such as cups In this activity, we will tip beans or water into containers and estimate or guess how high it will fill up to - You will need a full cup of beans or water, an empty ice-cream container and smaller containers 1. What do you think will happen if you pour the cup of beans or water into the ice-cream container? Can you predict how far it will fill up? Will it be full? Half full? Have a guess! 2. Empty the cup into the container. Did you guess correctly? Can you describe how full it is? 3. Write and draw what happened - use 1 page of your Remote Learning book Fill it up! - Next, you will need a cup full of beans and different sized containers - Each time, guess or predict how many cups of beans will you need to fill the container? - Pour the beans into the container.
